Directions

Preheat oven to 350 F. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in bowl. In an 8 qt. bowl, beat butter on medium speed until smooth and creamy, 1 minute. Gradually beat in sugars, 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each. Beat in vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Add chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans. For each cookie, drop 1/4 C. dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing 3 inches apart. Bake in 350 oven 17 to 20 minutes, until edges are lightly browned; rotate sheets halfway through. Remove cookies to rack to cool. Yield: 3 dozen cookies.
